I was watching the CNBC's Coke special and i was amazed at the new technology that Coke is now using called "Freestyle" soda machine with 104 flavors. I saw that it sends a detailed bar graph report to HQ on what products sold that day or week and so on. I saw that Coke saw a healthy spike and interest in Coke Orange among many different demographics i imagine. So Pepsi should be the first considering that Pepsi owns Crush now, to come out with a great product called(i came up with a cool name) Pepsi Orange Peel. I know Coke does market an orange flavored coke in the UK so I challenge pepsi to come out with it first. Otherwise if pepsi is not interested Coke could beat them to the punch with Coke Orange. Pepsi if you read this please add regular Pepsi Vanilla as i don't like diet drinks. All the peeps on here support me on this.

I've tried mixing orange soda with Coke or Pepsi from a fountain before, and it was pretty good, though I usually taste the orange more than the cola. I found the Jones orange cola to be sickeningly sweet though.

Interesting to see that Orange Coke has been a popular choice, though I wonder how much of that can be chalked up to mere curiosity. I think the numbers will be more telling once the Freestyle becomes more widely available and has been around for a while.

It's also interesting that given all those choices, most people still go with boring old regular Coke. I'm sure some of us could spend hours with one of those machines, trying out all sorts of combinations.
